Do you remember Clippy, the annoying Office Assistant for MS Word?

If you're running MS Word 2003, you can change the Office Assistant to reflect your mood. Just follow these steps:

1. If the Office Assistant is not visible on your screen asking what you want to know, press F1 or click your Help button on your toolbar and select Show Office Assistant.
    
2. Right-click on the Office Assistant. MS Word will then display a Context menu.
    
3. Select Choose Assistant from the Context menu. The Office Assistant dialog box will appear.
    
4. Click on the Gallery tab.
    
5. Scroll through the available Office Assistant characters by using the Back and Next buttons.
    
6. When you find an assistant that you like, click on OK.
